Spying in times of terror

Categories: nonviolence site news

A new poll out there shows that only 64% of Americans believe that the National Security Agency (NSA) should be allowed to intercept telephone conversations between terrorism suspects in other countries and people living in the United States. One wonders what the numbers would have been if "people living in the United States" were replaced by "Americans." Even so, 64% approval is pretty low in these fear of terrorism times.

Some random chatter on the blogs: Americablog's New domestic spying poll numbers are very bad for Bush, Ezra Klein's Trust, But Verify & Stephen Kaus at Huffington's Popping the Wrong Question, Instapundit's cryptic I guess Kaus was right and Michelle Malkin's Sorry NYTimes: America is OK with the NSA.
